Moving the Axes with the Distance-To-Go Display

Normally, the display shows the actual position of the tool. However, it
is often more helpful to display the remaining distance to the nominal
position (the distance-to-go). You can then position simply by moving
the axis until the display value is zero.

You can enter the absolute or the relative (incremental) coordinates in
the distance-to-go display. An active radius compensation will be
considered.

Example: Milling a shoulder with distance-to-go

Select the distance-to-go function.
The

symbol lights up.

NOML. VALUE X =

example 20 mm), select radius compensation
